SAVAK announce new LP 'Rotting Teeth in the Horse’s Mouth' (check out "Listening")

SAVAK are back with their fourth album, Rotting Teeth in the Horse’s Mouth, on April 10 via Ernest Jenning Record Co. The band recorded the album at their Gowanus studio and the record features appearances by Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys, Paramount Styles), Michael Hampton (The Faith, One Last Wish, Fake Names), and Anthony Roman (Radio 4). The first single is “Listening,” a strident, hooky punk number with real swagger that the band says is about “paying attention and choosing where the boundaries are at a time when they are constantly being redrawn.” That song premieres in this post and you can check out the animated music video below.

The band will celebrate the new album with a release show on April 11 at Union Pool with The Jay Vons and Green/Blue (tickets). They’ll also be on tour in the UK this May. All dates are listed below.
